Mr.. Powderly directs that only the
United States flag shall be displayed
BY the Knights Of Labor on the Fourth
Of July. He has evidently laid to heart
the teaching Of the poet:
The planets Of our Flag are set
In Gods eternal blue sublime,
Creation worldwide starry stripe
Between the banner'd days of time.
The waters free their mirrors are
And fair with equal light they look
Upon the royal oceans breast,
And On the humble mountain brook.
Thus ever shine, We Stars, for all
And palsied be the hand that harms
Earth's pleading signal to the skies
And heavens immortal coat ofarms.

MEETING OF RAILROAD MEN
Conclusions Reached by the New England
Passenger Agents

Boston, March l7.-At a meeting of the
railroad managers of New England held
today in this city it was decided that the
Interstate bill prohibits the issuance of
any free passes except for officers and en-
ployes of the railroad companies. The ac
ton of the joint committee of the meeting
in New York on the 4th prohibiting the
payment of passenger commissions was
adopted. The question whether charge
shall be made for the detention of cars
where the duty of unloading devolves up
on the consigneeS was decided in the
affirmative. AS to whether freight
charges shall be collected at once on deliv-
cry of the goods in all cases was left un-
decided. 1t was decided that the export
drawbacks are not prohibited by the law
and II this decision is sustained by the in
ter-state commissioners will tend to put
Boston on par with New York.
Another important decision is that the
law prohibits the issuing of tickets to
scholars at less rates than to other chill
dren of the same age. 1t was decided that
the present definition of excursion tickets
Is good enough and will stand under the
new law and are therefore allowed to be
issued. 1t was held that the law does not
apply to express business as matter fer
which the railroad companies are respon-
sible to the public. In regard to the adop-
ton OF uniform classification for local
freight business, it was generally agreed
that while such classification would be
a good thing, New England roads would
hnd 1t almost impossible to accomplish.

Some people give, as an excuse for not
advertising, that they have been long es-
tablished in their trade and are known to
all from whom they are at all likely to OBJ
tain patronage. In this country of rapid
changes such claim is simply absurd.
Our population is increasing at the rate of
nearly 40 per cent each 10 years, and this
increase is not confined 10 the newer
States and towns. Ihe newcomers should
be invited to trade with the old firms else
the younger rivals will get them and the
old customers also.

Thrown from a Buggy.

Last Monday afternoon while returning
from visit to friends in Six Mile Canyon,
George Rammelkamp and wife, of Sutro,
met with quite a painful accident. The
horse being driven was travelling along at a
lively gait when the front wheel of the
vehicle dropped of, the nut being unscrewed.
Mr.. Rammelkamp was pitched head fore
most out of the vehicle and struck his head
a severe blow on rock. He was also bruised
about the shoulder and side.
Mrs. Rammelkamp was also quite badly
bruised and scratched on her right hip and
arm. The horse, being spoken to, immedi-
ately stopped'when the accident happened
or further injuries might have been received
by the unfortunate couple. Neither Mr.. R.
nor his wife had any bones broken, and are
now recovering rapidly from the severe shak.

The Virginia Chronicle says the valiant
crusade Commissioner Sparks has made on
timber thieves in the west has frightened
most of them into hiding. One concern in
Colorado however, seems to be unterriied.
The columns of little newspaper up in the
Sneffels range contains the advertisement Of
three enterprising lumbermen, and it is some
thing unique. 1t runs like this:
Wa ARE NO RABBrrs.--This is to certify
that we are at the old stand, and no sun of a
gun of special agent is going to snoop
around our ranch. We buy Winchesters for
cash, and sell all kinds of lumber on time.
Our mill is still running up in the La SAILS,
and our prices are neither higher nor lower
than they were before William Andrew
Jackson Sparks and his henchmen undertook
to reform everything from hell to breakfast.
Come and see US. Our pine is on the Mesa,
and our mill is on the make.
Copies Of the defiant advertisement have
fallen into the hands of some OF Commits
sioner Sparks special agents, and the adverl
tisers may prefer before long to stop the mill
and take to the Mesa themselves.

Sold His Ranch.

Mr.. Kimber Cleaver, Of Mason Valley,
who has long been one OF the prominent
ranchers Of this county, has sold his ranch
to Mr.. Werrin, of Virginia City, for the sum
Of $500. The sale includes nearly all the
stock. 1t is understood that Mr.. w. R.
Penrose, of Wabuska, has leased the ranch
OF Mr.. Werrin and bought the stock and
mich cows, and will continue the business
Of dairying formerly carried on by Mr..
Cleaver. Mr.. Cleaver's reason for selling
was that his health has not been good for
some time, and he was not able to carry on
the business. He will probably locate some
where in Southern California, and what will
be that country's gain will be Lyon county's

America and several cases reported at diff
ferent parts of the United States, recently at
Detroit, Mich, people begin to consider
what they would do in case it
should appear in epidemic form here and to
ask what can be done. First, the sanitary
condition of the premises should be looked
TO: all decaying animal snd vegetable matter
removed. Second, drink no water until
after it has been boiled Third, procure a
50-cent bottle of Chamberlain's Collie, Chol-
